. >> for mitt romney, it's a conservative cold shoulder as he hits a certified southern losing streak sending him begging for more cash today just a few blocks from here at new york waldorf-astoria. indeed, after all the cheesy grits, biscuits and the catfish, maybe the supposed front-runner has developed a southern fried stomach you sker, especially after he let this escape his lips tuesday afternoon. >>. >> santorum is at the desperate end of his campaign and is trying to in many way to boost his prospects and frankly, misrepresenting the truth is not a good way of doing that. >> wait, who's desperate? santorum? hmm, interesting. let's bring in our panel now. with us from washington, msnbc political analyst and georgetown university professor microal eric dyson, michele cottle of news week and the daily beefrt and the senior writer from the salon.com. congratulations, steve. i have to start with you and i read your article the moment mitt's dreaded. with all the campaign disasters there have been for this man, i guess if he did drink alcohol, he would be crying into his beer today, wouldn't

that you did not cross. the well-oiled weather vain that is mitt romney didn't get the memo. a reporter in ohio asked a simple question. do you support the blunt amendment? in the case of a severely conservative candidate, one would expect the appropriate response. >> i'm not for the bill. >> you're what? >> i'm not for the bill. >> he's flipped back to reality. well, for a moment. he always turns back into the pumpkin. >> i didn't understand his question. i thought he have talking about a state law that prevented people from getting contraceptions. >> conservatives have heard this one before. on all matters conservative mitt appears to struggle with his team's play book. on coach reagan, there's this. >> i was an independent during the time of reagan-bush. i'm not trying to return to reagan-bush. >> i can't think of anything that ronald reagan stood for that isn't just as applicable today. >> nancy and friends may have trouble with that one. >> there's video tape of you going back years speaking about different issue, climate change, abortion, immigration, gay rights, how can voters tr

romney was in place calle snowville, georgia on sunday. he said if president obama is reelected then iran will get the bomb and the world will change. i think that got under the skin of some of the officials at the white house. coupled with that the president went to apec on sunday morning and gave his speech where he talked about loose talk of war. we thought he was referring to some of the leaders on both sides of the issue, both israeli and american. it turns out that could easily be applied to some of these republican candidates. the republican candidates appeared there today. a lot of tough rhetoric from there. you heard the president say they are playing politics. if they want to launch a war, they should just say so. >> michael viqueira at the white house. first questioner of the president. thanks so much. let's bring in our panel for more analysis. good day to all of you. dave, if you listen to the president on the seriousness of the potential conflict between iran and israel and then you compare his comments with the stupidity that comes from the mouth of gingrich and santorum, t
